Christmas is coming, a little thot on Christmas.
Strait Times published an article yesterday about unwed teenage mothers and their plight. One fact that is easily forgotten, Mary, mother of Jesus, was also an unwed teenage mother. Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that it is admirable or to imitate unwed teenage mother. I am trying to point out that Mary knew that she would have to face the jeering and look by the people in her village because of her situation. Yet, she said, "I am the Lord's servant, may it be to me as what you have said."
It was obedience to the end. As Christmas approaches, it is not about the glitters on the Christmas trees or shopping malls. It is about returning to God in obedience.
